Just purchased 2 for someone who was at the 1981 cup final, messaged me and said how the fuck can you buy tickets on City's website, we don't help ourselves, and they should open up some of the 45 pound tickets, stupid how they restrict sales, i had to pay 130 quid for an adult and a junior. They should keep them on sale until saturday suprising how many people make last minute decisions

On this I agree completely. Next time when there’s a potential non sell out remove restrictions as quickly as possible, avoid anything that’s going to put Blues off and leave them on sale for as long as necessary.
 
50 seats at 45 pounds now available in 2 blocks
Seat counters have no chance
And all next to each other

The Women's Euros was on at Wembley the following day, under UEFAs rules it couldn't be used the day before, which is why it was moved.

There were limited options because the season started earlier due to the Qatar World Cup and some grounds/pitches weren't ready after summer work etc.

I think the only choices were Arsenal, West Ham or Leicester, which seems like utter bollocks to me. Villa Park, Elland Rd, Hillsborough or Bramhall Lane would surely have been better!

The FA asked every Premier League Club if they’d be interested in hosting it and only about 3 or 4 said they would.

You can’t force a club to hire the FA their ground.

Great point, everything requires context.

Expecting to sell 34,000 tickets almost every year is madness. Okay it’s great for circumstances like Forest, Villa and Palace where they aren’t often in contention for trophies but not when you’ve been there over 30 times.

We’re the only club in this country who are in this position. Playing a semi final 200 miles away in a stadium with absolutely no novelty value. London clubs in the same scenario distance wise wouldn’t fill it. At least once Chelsea haven’t sold out a semi final and Wembley is in the same city. United and Liverpool have far more southern fans to take up the slack. Newcastle etc would sell their allocations for a while then hit the same issues. Midlands clubs have less distance to travel but would probably have the same issue.

In a rhetorical situation I even think Rangers and Celtic would struggle if they were playing in the same stadium against teams they have nothing to prove against that distance from Glasgow.

Also let’s not forget about some of the ticket prices. £150, £100, £70 tickets are all high for a semi final and will add up to an expensive weekend for a lot of families.

And then there’s the kick off times, with fuck all help from the FA for the club furthest away from Wembley with the schedule.

And we could be back there in three weeks time.

It’s actually hard to believe people are struggling to grasp why it’s not sold out TBH.

Cheers mate.

My brief believes, even if found guilty of the charge brought against me, I've got a very strong case on the FBO.

Bizarrely, during our discussions, she said she recognised my mrs name. It turns out her firm are representing a mate of mine who has asked my mrs to provide a character reference for him. I had no idea he'd engaged the same firm for his case, and was working with the exact same solicitor.

He's pretty much in the same boat as me after GMP arrested him outside the Etihad for shouting "always the victims" at the scousers. GMP have applied for a banning order and despite not being found guilty in a Court of law, he's been given an instant ban from City.
